Biography

Athínai, Greece
(1994 – present)

Naer Mataron were gathered back in the year 1994 in Athens, Greece with the aim to play hellenic black metal. Their lyrics are dealing with the ancient Hellenic pantheon, with virtues such as pride and honour drawn from periods and heroes of European history. With line-up changes and personal conflicts Naer Mataron released a promo “The Great God Pan”. With this release they signed a deal with Black Lotus rec.
Kaiadas is now leading this black metal tank and in 1998 their first album entitled “Up From the Ashes” became a reality. A masterpiece of fast, violent black metal with melodic pagan atmosphere and feeling. For two whole years Naer Mataron worked on a new material with a satanic devotion to their cause and finally in November 2000 their album entitled “Scotos Aenaon” (ancient Greek phrase for endless darkness) hit the streets. This album gives a jolt to the Hellenic black metal scene. Fast drumming and riffing mix with epic melodies supported by keyboards completed by the haunting screaming vocals Naer Mataron participate in many live shows such as the memorable live with Mayhem, Rotting Christ and Order Of The Ebon Hand. In 2001 Aphelion prod. releases a 7”ep called “A Holocaust In Front Of God`s Eyes”in the vein of old school black metal. In the anno domini 2002 Kaiadas meets the person who changes the way the songs were composed,his name is Warhead. His inexhaustible talent indominating over drum kit was an inspiration to the band.
